Trivia
When DC pulls out the pistol from its holder in the generator chamber, its sound is identical to Return to Castle Wolfenstein (2001) when the player swaps weapons. Similarly, when the soldiers emerge from the truck, the slamming noise is the same as in RTCW when the player attempts to open a locked wooden door.

Goofs
Hunt claims that when Einstein "saw the atomic bomb tests at Trinity, he abandoned the research" on the Unified Field Theory and burned his notes. Firstly, there was only ever one single Trinity test, world's first atomic test in 1945. The operation was not named after the location but the other way round: 'Trinity Site', on what is today White Sands Missile Range, was only afterwards so named because of that test.

Einstein was not among the Trinity observers, nor did he stop his work on the Unified Field Theory. The first time Einstein even published anything about it was in a 1950 article in 'Scientific American' titled "On the Generalized Theory of Gravitation".

Quotes
Prior: [Prior shoots the Breather in the head] Well, that worked.
Jordan: So we can kill them, right?
Prior: His brains are all over the wall. That's good enough for me.
McKay: [the Breather sits up and looks at them] Oh, you're hummin' my balls!

A good way to spend an evening

I had no expectations when I started watching this movie. I had some time on my hands and it seemed decent enough to kill some time with. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised.

The idea around the movie isn't all that unique but it delivers it with an atmosphere and style that is nothing short of wonderful. The acting in this little gem is top notch. The setting itself enhances the story and events that take place, and with minimal special fx I might add. I am somewhat of a veteran to the chiller movie genre, but this one did send a shiver or two down my spine. Nice to see something that can provoke a reaction without relying heavily on gore.

All around I would say that it is well worth watching.
